Emerson Salon – Capitol Hill Seattle

Well its Tuesday and you know what that means. It’s time for a new episode of Glee. This season has already been jam packed with amazing performances. We recently did a post on Jane Lynch’s character, Sue Sylvester from Glee, doing an exact remake of the Madonna Vogue video. As it turns out, the Madonna episode took the highest ratings of the night and even topped the iTunes charts. The power of Madge lives on! In addition, the queen of Broadway, Kristin Chenoweth, even guest starred recently and wowed us with her vocal prowess.

The actors and actresses on Glee not only have amazing vocal abilities, but also look great. If you are looking for your own fantastic hairstyle here is how they do some of our favorites on Glee.

Lea Michele plays Rachel Berry in the show- the beautiful singer with 2 dads. Her hair is always silky smooth and shiny! How would we make you look like her? First, we would probably add a rich darkest brown shade all over (demi-permanent or permanent.) For dimension, balayaged highlights can be added to the ends for softness. Then we would use Radiant Smoothing Lotion by Alterna and blow dry with a round brush from the nape up. Add a little Glimmer Spray Shine by Moroccan Oil for tremendous shine and softness after the blow dry. Lastly, take a high heat curling iron to 2-3″ vertical sections only on the ends to create bouncy texture.

Matthew Morrison plays Will Shuester- the teacher who dukes it out with the Cheerios each week while attempting to revitalize the school’s Glee club. Matthew’s hair is unique in that he has a lot of it and its tremendously curly. If you are a guy who has this texture- here are some tips!!

• Ask your Emerson Stylist to give you a haircut that is clean around the neck and ears but softly layered through the sides, back and crown. The hair should be left about 2″ long to allow for curl. Added texture could be used to control curl and eliminate bulk. The hair at the top of the forehead/hairline can be left longer so it can be over directed to the soft layers at the crown.
• To style: Add Moroccan Oil Intense Curl Cream once towel dried. Diffuse with a blowdryer or allow to dry naturally.
• Add Hair Putty by Fudge to the longer hair at the hairline and using a boar bristle brush, softly brush back the texture into some height. Spray with Session Spray by Kevin Murphy for extra hold and set with a low setting medium heat blowdryer.

We can’t wait to see what brilliance Glee comes up with next!
